Course Description
This course provides an upper level introduction to LGBTQ issues in cinema, and includes films from the much acclaimed \"New Queer Cinema\" of the 1990s. Students will consider how gay and queer sexualities are produced in these films and what debates the films generated. We will study what it means to \"queer\" a film and the limitations of \"positive images.\" We will also examine how alternative genders and sexualities are produced alongside ethnic, cultural, religious, and regional differences. Film studies background not assumed.
